Those who are in the market for one of Apple's next-generation MacBook Pros with a Retina display are still going to have to wait a few weeks, but shipping times are improving.

The U.S. online Apple Store currently lists ship times for the high-resolution laptop in the two-to-three week range. But this is an improvement over the possible month-long shipping delay customers have been forced to endure since the introduction of the laptop last month.

MacRumors first reported the development, noting that shipping times have now improved in the U.S., Canada, as well as some Asia-Pacific markets, and many parts of Europe.

Days after taking the wraps off its $2,200 laptop back in June, Apple ran out of supplies. At the time, Cupertino's online store listed the two models with a Retina display with an estimated waiting time of three to four weeks before arrival. Meanwhile, the rest of the MacBook Pro lineup has been listed as in stock.

"However some of us are still waiting for our Retina MacBook Pros so until then, there are a few glitches here and there," the company wrote in blog post Wednesday.

The MacBook Pro with Retina display starts at $2,199 for the 2.3-GHz quad-core i7 with 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of flash storage. You can also get 2.6 GHz quad-core i7 model with 512GB of flash storage for $2,799.
